We present this little book to our citizens for the purpose of bringing into their hands the songs which true Americans love and always will love. The only price we will accept for "Songs of America" is the promise to commit to memory the words of the four verses of "The Star SpangledBanner." Upon one of the recents visits of a company of the New York National Guard to Kingston, Ontario, the officers of the company were tendered a banquet by the officers of the 14th Prince of Wales Own Rifles of the latter city. At the close of this banquet the Canadians present arose to their feet and sang three verses of the British National Hymn "God Save the King." When the American guests were called upon to respond by singing their own national anthem it is a fact that not more than three of those present knew the words even of the first verse. Said an American who was present: "Our shame and chagrin for not knowing what every school child ought to be taught with his primer, may be easily imagined." We particularly recommend that you hear the record "The Star Spangled Banner" which John McCormack has made for the Victor Talking Machine Co. Every patriotic song listed in the this booklet may be found in the Victor catalog, from our ancient "Yankee Doodle Dandy" to the most modern patriotic songs.

ITS ORIGIN AND HISTORY. In the past, the belief has generally prevailed that the design of our flag was derived from the Washington coat of arms. The only conceivable foundation for such a belief is in the circumstance that a certain resemblance exists between the escutcheon of the Washington family and that of the United States, namely, that each is a shield with stars at the top and stripes below. The resemblance between the two, however, is not close, since that of the Washingtons has the stripes across,— see cover design, — while that of the United States has them up and down. Again, many believed that our flag was derived from the American shield. On the contrary, the shield was derived from the flag. At the present time we have direct indications, if not absolute proof, that our first flag, the Grand LTnion of 1776, was copied or adapted from the British flag. The two are alike in color, they are also alike in being divided into field and canton, and, at that time, they stood probably alone among the flags of the world in this respect. Moreover, a most convincing transition form between the two is found in the Grand Union flag which was raised over the Colonial armies on January 1, 1776, and was their flag until supplanted by the Stars and Stripes in June, 1777. That Grand Union flag had a field of red and white stripes and a canton of superimposed crosses. The field was like that of the present American flag, and the canton was the Union Jack of Great Britain. The steps of transition are obvious. The field was retained and the stars were substituted for the crosses in the canton. * ; As a final proof, it is recorded that George Washington explicitly declared, in reporting to Congress the design of the Stars and Stripes, that it was, at least in part, copied from the flag of the mother country. Our First National Flag, Jane J 4, 1777. On June 14, 1777, Congress adopted the resolution that the flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, alternating red and white, and that the Union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field. This is the first recorded legislative action for the adoption of a national flag, and it was the first emblem to be officially recognized by the thirteen states of the Union. The 14th day of June, therefore, is known as Flag Day and was first observed as such in 1893. Our Flag: of To-day. By an act of Congress, April 4/ 1818, the flag of the United States was estab­ lished. By this act, it was provided that the thirteen alternate red and white stripes of the original flag of 1777 should represent the thirteen original states, and that each new state thereafter admitted to the Union should be represented by the addition of a star. The additional stars on our flag of to-day mark the increase of the states since that time. Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County - Local History Music Collection FLAG OF THE FREE.

The author of this soul-inspiring lyric, Francis Scott Key, was born Aug. 9, 1780, at Terra Rubra, Carroll County, Maryland, and died in Baltimore, Jan. 11, 1843. Mr. Key was a lawyer by profession, and the song which has immortalized his name and become national was inspired and written by him while a prisoner on board the "Minden." He was witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry, Md., by the British, between midnight and dawn of Sept. 13, 1814, and the scene made his heart sick with anxiety. The warm patriotism breathed in the song is not the offspring of fancy or mere sentiment or of poetic imagination. He describes what he actually saw in the dim light of the morning, and tells how he felt when he could not see the flag through the smoke of battle, and what his feelings were when the battle was over and the victory won by bis countrymen. Every word came warm from his throbbing heart and filled his soul with thankfulness to the Divine hand that turned the tide of battle for Liberty. The song was first published Sept. 21, 1814, in the Baltimore American, and imme­ diately caught the popular fancy.

  • History of Barbershop
    HISTORY OF BARBERSHOP By David Krause and David Wright Definition of barbershop harmony. Read: Definition of Barbershop Harmony, from the Forward of the Contest and Judging Handbook. The Purpose Of This Course. We will attempt to trace the roots and the evolution of barbershop harmony from well before its actual beginnings up to the present. We will try to answer these questions: What were the tides of history which spawned the birth of the barbershop quartet, and what environment allowed this style of music to flourish? What were its musical forerunners? What are its defining characteristics? What other types of music were fostered contemporaneously, and how did they influence the growth of quartet singing? Which styles are similar, and how are they similar? How did the term "barbershop" arise? How long did the historical era of the barbershop quartet last? What other kinds of music sprang forth from it? Why did the style eventually need preservation? How was SPEBSQSA formed, and how did it become a national movement? What other organizations have joined the cause? How have they coped with the task of preservation? Are current day efforts still on course in preserving the style? How has the style changed since the Society was formed? We will spend the next few hours contemplating and attempting to answer these questions. Overtones. As barbershoppers, we are very conscious of the "ringing" effect which complements our singing. We consider it our reward for singing well- defined pitches in tune. The fact that a tone produced by a voice or an instrument is accompanied by a whole series of pitches in addition to the fundamental one which our ear most easily detects has been known for centuries.

Hace contorsiones. Mueve el pecho cachondo. Todos corean la rumba. Mujeres de ojos enormes se acercan. Su respirar es un danzón” (11). De primera intención, quien no sabe que esta novela está situada en Veracruz pensará que está leyendo una narración caribeña o brasileña. Esto se debe a que la identidad mexicana no se concibe comúnmente como vinculada con la negritud ni con las formas culturales que la construyen. En cambio, lo mexicano se define a raíz de los aportes indígenas y europeos o del mestizaje entre ambos elementos.
